摘要:
Acid can be generated by exposing a mixture of a superacid precursor and a dye to actinic radiation of a first wavelength which does not, in the absence of the dye, cause decomposition of the superacid precursor to form the corresponding superacid, thereby causing absorption of the actinic radiation and decomposition of part of the superacid precursor, with formation of a protonated product derived from the dye, then irradiating the mixture with actinic radiation of a second wavelength, thereby causing decomposition of part of the remaining superacid precursor, with formation of unbuffered superacid. Preferably, following these irradiations, the imaging medium is heated while the superacid is admixed with a secondary acid generator capable of being thermally decomposed to form a second acid, the thermal decomposition of the secondary acid generator being catalyzed by the presence of the superacid. The acid generation process may be used for imaging by bringing the superacid or second acid into contact with an acid-sensitive material which changes color on contact with acid, or the superacid may be used to trigger polymerization, depolymerization or other reactions.
摘要:
Acid can be generated by exposing a superacid precursor to actinic radiation effective to generate superacid from the superacid precursor and heating the superacid in admixture with a secondary acid generator capable of undergoing thermal decomposition to produce a secondary acid. The superacid catalyzes decomposition of the secondary acid generator, thus increasing the quantity of strong acid present in the medium. The resultant secondary acid can be used to effect a color change in an acid-sensitive material, so providing an imaging process.

Copolymeric mordant materials containing recurring units according to the following formula are disclosed: ##STR1## In such copolymers, each of R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 can independently be alkyl; substituted-alkyl; cycloalkyl; aryl; aralkyl; alkaryl; or at least two of R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, together with the quaternary nitrogen atom to which they are bonded, can complete a saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring; X is an anion; R.sup.4 is hydrogen or alkyl (e.g. methyl). The pendent "b" group contain hydrogen-bonding sites for promotion of self-associated aggregation and ring unsaturation for photocyclization and control of physical properties (e.g., water insensitivity) of the image-receiving layer. The copolymeric mordant materials can be utilized as image-receiving layers in photographic products and processes of the diffusion transfer type. The mordants are especially adapted to the production of dye images exhibiting favorable maximum density (D.sub.max) and rates of dye transfer properties.

An image-receiving element for use in photographic diffusion transfer film units of the "peel-apart" type is disclosed, comprising a support material; a polymeric acid-reacting layer; a water-permeable, water-absorbing polymeric layer for the gathering of processing moisture and image-degrading salt species; a thin, polymeric latex-deposited, water-impermeable and non-absorbing timing layer which is substantially impermeable to alkali for a predetermined period until the occurrence of a predetermined chemical reaction and conversion of said layer to a condition of permeability to alkali; and an alkali-permeable and dyeable image-receiving layer.

Compounds which include a quaternary group connected to a pyrimidine residue through a linkage are disclosed. These compounds are useful as silver halide solvents in photographic products, processes and compositions.
摘要:
Trimethylamine acrylimide is prepared by condensing a mixture of 3-chloropropionyl chloride, 3-chloropropionic acid and trimethylhydrazinium p-toluenesulfonate; and then converting the thus-formed intermediate to the trimethylamine acrylimide, including the step of deprotonating with base.
摘要:
Diffusion transfer photographic products are disclosed which comprise a support carrying at least a photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer, a dye image-forming material and a layer comprising polymeric derivatives of tetrazole-5-thiols. Associated with this photographic product is a multivalent metal cation which diffuses to the layer comprising the polymeric derivatives of tetrazole-5-thiols to increase the permeability of said tetrazole-5-thiol containing layer to the dye image-forming material.
摘要:
Novel compounds are disclosed which release a photographic reagent in the presence of alkali and are therefore useful in photographic products and processes. The compounds may be defined as quinone- or naphthoquinonemethide precursors containing a mercapto-azole or azine photographic reagent moiety.
